MicroRNA miR-145-5p inhibits Phospholipase D 5 (PLD5) to downregulate cell proliferation and metastasis to mitigate prostate cancer
BIOENGINEERED(2021)
Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa), a frequently detected malignant tumor, is the fifth leading global cancer mortality cause in men. Although research has improved the PCa survival rate, significantly reduced survival occurs among patients at the metastatic stage. MiRNAs, which are short non-coding proteins, are crucial for several biological roles, essential for PCa proliferation, differentiation, multiplication, and migration. The investigation aimed to explore miR-145-5p and PLD5 association and clarify their function in regulating proliferation in PCa cell lines. The study used PC-3, LNCaP, DU-145 PCa, and RWPE-1 non-cancerous cell line, PCa, and BPH tissue specimens, and nude mice to validate results. MiR-145-5p and PLD5 manifestation were assessed through RT-qPCR. PLD5 and miR-145 binding was determined through dual-luciferase reporter gene assays. Validation of cell proliferation, migration, and invasion was assessed through MTT, scratch wound, and transwell assays, respectively. The results indicated a downregulation of miR-145-5p level in PCa cell lines and tissues in comparison to the non-cancerous controls. PLD5 overexpression exerted a cancerous effect while mimicking of miR-145-5p reversed the PLD5-oncogenic effects and significantly inhibited PCa cells proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. In conclusion, the study revealed that miR-145-5p upregulated apoptosis and repressed migration, invasion, and metastasis of PCa via direct PLD5 modulation. [GRAPHICS] .
